In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study will compare the performance of a novel data-driven model-predictive controller (MPC) based functional electrical stimulation (FES) system versus a conventional FES system for footdrop correction during treadmill and overground walking tasks in people post-stroke.
